Love American Style

Love American Style

A popular subject in sociology and cultural studies, divorce has until recently been overlooked by literary critics. Spanning nearly a century during which the divorce rate skyrocketed, Love American Style traces the treatment of divorce in the American novel. This book draws upon popular, sociological, political and architectural history to illustrate how divorce reflects conflicting ideologies and notions of American identity. Focusing primarily on work by William Dean Howells, Edith Wharton, Mary McCarthy and John Updike, Kimberly Freeman delineates a system of tropes particular to divorce in American novels, such as the association of divorce with the West and modernity, the dismantling of the home, and the disruption of the boundary between the public and the private. These tropes suggest a literary tradition of love, marriage and divorce that is central to twentieth century American fiction. Offering an explanation for both the treatment of divorce in the American novel as well as its predominance in American culture, this book should appeal to scholars of American literature and popular culture, or anyone interested in how divorce has become so 'American'.

Can Labor Standards Improve Under Globalization?

Can Labor Standards Improve Under Globalization?

Kimberly Ann Elliott; Richard Freeman

The Peterson Institute for International Economics
2003
nidottu
Protesters now routinely fill the streets when any large, formal meeting dealing with international economic issues takes place. They express concern about the potential social and environmental costs of globalization and want negotiators to address these issues in trade agreements and international organizations. In addition, the debate over whether and how to link labor standards to trade has led to an impasse in American trade policy for much of the past decade and has tied the hands of US trade negotiators. Proposals to "let the market do it" or "let the International Labor Organization (ILO) do it" abound, but it is less common to find any serious analysis of just how activists can galvanize consumers to demand that corporations raise labor standards in their global operations or how the ILO can become more effective. In this study, Elliott and Freeman move beyond the debate on the relative merits and risks of a social clause in trade agreements and focus on practical approaches for improving labor standards in a more integrated global economy.The authors examine both what is being done in these areas and what more needs to be done to ensure that steady and tangible progress toward universal respect for core labor standards is made. While concluding that the ILO should have primary responsibility for labor standards, the book also suggests that the WTO should consider how to address egregious and willful violations of core labor standards if they are trade related.

Det påstås att ungefär 14 500 krig har utkämpats sedan år 3 500 f.Kr. Mänskligheten har bara erfarit 300 år av fred på jorden. Under 1900-talet dödades fler människor i krig än något tidigare sekel. Relativt sett dödar vi dock varandra mer sällan. Håller vi gradvis på att bli mer fredliga? Oavsett hur många som dödas, och med vilken metod, kan vi vara säkra på att krig kommer att fortsätta utkämpas. Ligger orsakerna till krig i samhället eller i biologin, i tävlan om ekonomiska resurser eller sexuella, i historiska omständigheter eller i en universell våldsinstinkt? Allt sedan antiken fram till dagens terrorism har krig varit förstörare och skapare av stater och civilisationer. Essäerna i denna antologi har sitt ursprung i det internationellt välrenommerade Engelsbergsseminariet 2015 och är skrivna av historiker, journalister, tänkare, forskare och författare från hela världen. Huvudredaktörer är Kurt Almqvist och Alexander Linklater.

The values in 'Kimberley the Koala'Kimberley is a story about timidity. It shows how difficult it sometimes is to stand on your own two feet, to think and act for yourself. Most young children reach a point where they want to branch out on their own. Many have an initial fear of leaving the safety of home and 'mummy', of starting school or being in the care of other family members, but this soon vanishes as the excitement takes over. But for some, the need to cling safely to the familiar becomes a real obstacle to developing.This story will help such children understand the need to adventure further as they grow up.KIMBERLEY -A tale of independence- For nearly two months Kimberley had ridden on her mother's back while she became used to life in the eucalyptus trees. But now it is time for her to spend more time climbing among the branches on her own. However, Kimberley is reluctant to do so. She was comfortable in her mother's pouch, she is comfortable riding on her mother's back and she enjoys being carried about. Then one day a bush fire starts and it moves slowly towards the eucalyptus patch. Kimberley's mother cannot escape with her heavy daughter on her back. Kimberley must make it on her own. But she is too fat and is soon out of breath. As the smoke starts to billow round them, Kimberley is forced to act.
